    Theres an infinity line running through any cube which means you can scale an image of a cube so it goes small to infinity or large to infinity. When you draw a cube there are bisecting lines you can use to draw a cube within a cube. Its similar to holding a mirror in front of a mirror, A, B, AB, O

    Many years ago, when my kids were young, we were very broke. So broke that a friend lent us a pre-lit fake Christmas tree. We had no decorations at all. (The tree had only clear lights.) My kids were sad that we didn't have decorations. What I did have was a metric F ton of printer paper. We sat at the table and made Mobius strips of many, many sizes to decorate the tree. It was magnificent! One of our favorite trees! (Dad taught me about Mobius strips when I was very young, so I handed down the magic.)
